DISCLAIMER, please read before commenting:
This is not supposed to be an accurate representation of reality. That's why the video title begins with: "IL-2 1946:". I'm showing of the game, not history.
Fishyyy actually that was a text book interception nicely executed
Fishyyy I’m glad that disclaimer was there haha. Because there were many ‘historically inaccurate’ qualities there. But I understand how you are showing off the game and it’s still a great video. Good job 👍🏼
Seems like a good day at the office if you ask me. Nice kills
Pretty sad that you have to state this. There are a growing section of society that do not get the fucking obvious.
History might have had to be rewritten, if Hitler hadn't delayed his deployment of fighter jets to be fighter bombers. US daytime bombing might have been too costly in lives and bombers, instead it was just about the last straw for Nazi Germany by having it's industrial base reduced to rubble. IL2 is meant to be a combat game where the player sets the parameters, just like wargamers play out battle scenarios to see if with hindsight they might get a different result.
It's so crazy that people actually did this in real life.
Komets only shot down 12 bombers I am pretty sure in total, that’s still crazy tho
@@intergalacticolivethe craziest part is that many times more Me 163s were lost in accidents than in combat. It actually had a good loss-rate for combat losses alone, the plane just had a tendency to spontaneously combust and/or dissolve the pilot's flesh.
@@intergalacticoliveI believe it went 10 kills - 12 deaths caused by mechanical failure of the engine/fire
@@paint4rthe fuel was extremely volatile so if they landed with fuel still in the tanks and it bounced it would explode
Yeah the factory that made the fuel for it was bombed 1-3 months after the ME-163 entered service so it couldn't fly for most of its service r@dallas_pandora4206
Like they say- any landing that doesn’t drive your spine through the top of your skull or splash you with liquids that instantly dissolve human flesh is a good landing.
Nice video. Textbook attacks. Good fuel/engine management. Excellent gunnery. Smart final approach. Well done. I'd recommend this video to anyone who wants to enjoy Me 163 in Il-2 airsim.
Could you actually throttle/start/stop the motor as shown though?
Nice air combat simulator this is. Really fun to see the Komet "in action". In reality the Komet did only one or two passes at full speed and then it was extremely difficult to aim the cannons. Also, due to the unreliability of the rocket engine this interceptor was more lethal to the pilots that had the balls to fly it than to the enemy. If they could have made the engine running at intermediate speed for combat it would have had longer endurance and it would also be possible to score more hits. This was planned for the Me163C, but it was never realized. In the Me163B the engine was only on/off. Another disadvantage was when gliding back to base the Komet became an easy prey for piston-engined fighters. Finally , landing on a single skid often led to accidents, either compressing the pilots vertebra or making the plane tip over, which often ignited any fuel left and led to fatal explosions. Besides this, the Komet airframe was based on a glider design and had excellent flying characteristics. A milestone in aviation history. The Bell X-1 was partially based on the Komet design and, piloted by Chuck Yeager, was the first aircraft to "officially" break the sound barrier.
Thanks for pointing this out. I was just about to ask whether the real Me-163 really had enough fuel for so many attacks. Also, the damage caused with these few hits appears too big, unless it would be explosive ammunition.
Likely the first was Hans Guido Mutke in his Me262 in a dive. His Wikipedia page has the story and his plane is in a Swiss museum.
@@JoergStarkmuth 30mm mine shells. plenty of power
Man gets more kills in one mission than the Me-163 did in it's entire career.
Still gets blamed for bad flying
@@Fishyyy you did better than I could’ve done.
The factory that made its fuel was bombed 1-3 months into its service do it couldn't fly
Imagine the nuts it took to fly one. No fear for sure, or just enough
read winckle browns flight report on them, an utter dream as a glider but under power he felt it was always getting away from him and too fast for the flight profile
@@scrubsrc4084 …the book is “Wings on my Sleeve”
They said it was like flying a bowling ball
Glad to see the T-Stoff didn't come into the cockpit and melt the pilot
That's why Fishyyy ran the fuel tank dry before attempting landing approach.
Talk about a pilot panicking and _going to pieces...😊_
My dad was a bombardier in a B-17G during WWII and told stories occasionally about the German fighters. He saw Me 262s on a few occasions but never saw the Comet. But the tactics he described we exactly what you were doing here except usually they would try to come in from the front either head on or quarter on. They didnt hang around very long or they would get shot down. That's why they tried to never approach the bombers from behind.
ME-163 sim in a game?? COOL!!
Although I understand _why,_ it STILL amazes me the Komet was the _only_ rocket-propelled fighter aircraft EVER used in combat....
Because they kept killing the pilots, including one who was literally melted by the fuel.
It's only useful as a last ditch effort to defend a desperate country, also after the war they were replaced with surface to air missiles which did the job better without sacrificing a pilot
@@gabrielcooper1248 >>> 👍👍
Hanna Reitsch was a test pilot of the Me-163 - that was a badass lady. The Me-163 (with the monsterous rocket-engine turned off) is probably still the fastest glider ever.
Huh, I have a friend named Hannah who is joining the Air Force, just reminded me of her that’s all.
in realility more Me 163.s were lost on landing than in actual combat that C-stoff and T-stoff used for fuel would melt the pilot if it came into contact with him these guys who flew them must have had balls of steel [except for Hanna Reich of course]
to think that the Komet actually flew in combat :-O wonder what the allies thought when they saw it
they first said `` is that the propeller of that thing???``
when they captured one xD
“Aliens”
@@Sigmar_Heldenhammer what?!
…………. oh shit ….!
Probably thought. Oh fuck what else do they have .
2018 and pepole are still playing this game, wow
aceadarsh2 gaming wym
David christ... dude i was just saying it aged well, im not insulting the game take a chill pill "old man" (ps. Dont call pepole kids on the internet when they may be adults)
It's still loads of fun and with so many mods...
if the game is good dont matter how old is
@@wntu4 Very true, that's why people still play Axis & Allies Global 1940, which is Europe 1940 and Pacific 1940 put together in one amazing board game. Those games are from 2009 and 2010, respectively.
Scrabble's been around 1948 and Monopoly since 1935.
What a scary thing to encounter as a bomber crew. So fast its hard to hit
I don’t care what you say, the komet is still one of my favorite aircraft.
I'm partial to the Dornier DO-335.. a sexy bird, for sure!! I'm pretty sure even Hitler said "WOW" when he first saw it.
Those two planes are good, but I love the Fi-103R more than anything!
what about the fact the fumes it let out the back could get into the cockpit dissolving the pilot alive? or that it's so hard to land many ended up with broken spines or dead?
Just the most awesome video- fantastic job! It's more like Star Wars than anything else- and to imagine this was just 40 years after the Wright Brothers.
I never thouhgt a me 163 could be so effective...I did know soo fassst. Die España a nn Deutschland !!
Nicely executed maneuvers, really good fuel and armament management.
Not so many videos out there are as good. I keep good memories from Il2 1946. The new IL2 BOS and their expansions are nice looking but still something is missing from the original. Sometimes I feel the AI in the original IL21946 was more challenging and maneuvered better.
Keep it up!.
some good kills ripping through the allied bombers
found the Nazi
Amazing edit of an amazing game! Your deflection shooting is really good btw!
Not a fun plane to land. The skid broke the backs of quite a few pilots.
Would it be better if it has two skids?
Just imagine for a moment IF the luftwaffe woulda actually had these in force along with the ME 262 ' the beautiful Dornier Do335 all perfected and in the hands of their best pilots early in 42 when the first U.S raids started. There wouldnt have been a strategic daylight bombing campaign cuz everything coming over german soil would been shot out of the sky. The P51 woulda been nothing compared to the ME262 and 163 komet.
they would at least have wont the battle of britain. altough me163s couldnt reach britain and 262s would prob need additional fuel tanks but still if flown right there would not a be a reason to lose any planes when fighting hurricanes and early model spitfires in a 262.
@fiddle Any aircraft is vulnerable while landing. The P-51 wasn’t saved from getting shot down on its landing run by superior low-speed maneuverability. It just had the luxury of landing in safe locations. For Germany in 1944-45, having great numbers of planes would’ve done them no good, because they lacked the pilots to fly them and the resources to maintain them.
Yo creo que es el mejor vuelo y eficaz combate que jamás he visto. One of the very most amizing fly and battle I have never seen. Gracias mil por la experiencia.
The part of the Komet that stunk for the pilots was the trail they left like reverse tracer saying "shoot here"
Imagine swarms of these attacking massive formations if the war somehow went on longer
This appears to be a “what-if” throttle-able ME-163…which I think they may have been working on, or a dual engine chamber one….one engine for take off and one for cruise…
The engine in this model is modelled accurately. It happened.
@@Fishyyy ….always thought the Walther engine was on or off….
The HWK 109-509 used in the Me-163 B-1 had five different stages: Off, idle, 1, 2 & 3. The B-1 was the main version of the 163.
@@Fishyyy thanks, good info. Incidentally Alexander Lippisch lived an hour away from me in Cedar Rapids Iowa when he worked for Collins Avionics back in the ‘60s-70’s.
Bad day for the Carpet Bombers. Liberators meet the future.
Didnt know they had the ability to turn the rocket on and off.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messerschmitt_Me_163_Komet
Check the citation 28
Five-position throttle: off, ground idle, flight idle, cruise, max power. (5) Undercarriage extension/retraction
I see how powerless those thunderbolt try to chase it, and how vulnerable the komet is after empty its fuel.
Most of the time they just blew up on the ground :P
blackmesa1992 in reality they couldn't turn the rocket on and off in flight or adjust its power at all. On was full on and only allowed for about 10 minutes of powered flight including the climb to altitude which was very fast.
Дмитрий Лисин uhhhhh yea
Sweet shooting, nothing more satisfying than to see a fatty bomber going down. Sad to see the helpless mustangs watching the massacre unfolding around.
*P-47 thunderbolts :)
Also hell yeah, bombers are my favorite targets.
I think comet can only make 1 or 2 passes before fuel running out.
if you fly well using the engine in bursts you can make a lot of passes
or have unlimited fuel turned on
With just over 5.5 seconds of ammo, you don't need that many passes.
Well use the guns like they are semi automatic and you can get yourself 3~5 kills
+Bitcoin Broker "In war there would be some more ME-163 not only one also in this scenario"
From what I know, Me 163s attacked alone or in a pair. If you can cite any sources which contradict this, I would be interested in seeing that.
Very nice vid! And very accurate from historical perspective. Keep up the good job!
Great video I love this game it's one of the best I've played in 30 years since Chuck Yeager days.the only thing I didn't like is the Komet only had 6 minutes of fuel and generally only got one good pass through the bomber formations.but it was great tactics exactly how the Komet operated and how mad was the sound of the plane when it's gliding down into the bombers.I enjoyed that.I lost my disc when I moved so I have to buy another copy.
Thank you. The comet in this game has around seven minutes of fuel, which is accurate for some real versions. Some versions also could disable the engine mid flight IRL. Your criticsm in that regard isn't qualified. You know, the developers did do their homework.
I can destroy a P51 in a IL2 1946 mission while they pass me
Mix C-Stoff & T-Stoff Juuust Right! ;-)
Kann man mal ein Ründchen mit dir spielen? und sehr schönes Video👍
Meine Kontaktdaten sind in der Beschreibung, ich bin grundsätzlich immer dabei.
Love the vid. The hawker typhoons couldn’t touch the komet once its jets were on.
Even though it was deadly to fly this is one of my fav aircraft of ww2. Nothing could touch it. I think it went over 600 mph. DAMN
Rocket motor.
Love it. You've really got those high speed passes down.
such a pretty little bird
1:58 epic moment for german aces.
Designed by Alexander lippisch, the me 163 komet was fastest ww2 plane and later inspired future x planes and jet fighters
Me 163s shot down a few b17s near end of ww2, not good interceptor with its speed, it would have to make quick pass attacking a bomber with its 30mm cannon, they were dangerous planes to fly with their volatile fuel, and some were shot down by allied fighters
Agreed, however it would be interesting to see how effective the SG500 Jägferfaust would’ve been. It could’ve solved the problem of speed.
Nothing is better than an american plane shot down.
coke and hookers?
?
Yes
One actually managed to shoot down a mosquito on the turn but being cooked alive was a more likely outcome for the German pilot.
Lol those escorts really wanted to get you at the end
Mighty fine gunmanship!
The guy in the P-47 : "Jesus how do we even FIGHT something like that?"
numbers
I don't think the 163 had the fuel capacity to perform all the maneuvers shown in the simulation.
It had fuel for 7m 30s, it's the exact same in the game. The engine is shut off for minutes in this.
Very good. I learned something. Nice job.
I think IRL, the 163 often had to travel further to reach targets, which is why it typically only had fuel for 1 or 2 attacks. Or more precisely, it was probably already calculated how far the 163 could fly and attack 1 or 2 times, and the 163's were then launched under those conditions.
It had 10 mins of fuel at max throttle, and had a cruise and idle setting. Provided they might not have actually worked.
Wether an intervept left enough fuel for seven passes depended on the intercept, obviously.
Is this game still up and running with online servers?

Gutes Video. Gefällt mir das du noch IL-2 Videos machst.
bang bang bang plane falls apart ... wow
Great vid! Masterfully done
For it's time, very good!
That looked like a lot of fun.
Why don't those P-47's have the bands on the tail, elevators, and cowling?
Pretty accurate picture of how little time a Komet pilot had to shoot at a bomber as it blew past
The real Komet take off with the help of a ramp or a catapult and land with their own belly ;-) They don't can fly too longer because they are propeled with simply short rockets.
I gotta get this game again. This and Red Orchestra are really well done for how old these games are. Also miss Steel Beasts.
Me 163s were like a rocket shooting into the sky after takeoff, their speed at over 600mph approached the speed of sound, certainly the fastest ww2 aircraft and an inspiration for future x planes and jet fighters
Indeed it is one of my favourite planes
Lol i read the disclaimer glad i did cause i was bout to lose my ish love the sim tho.
Αre there active servers in this game right now? Are there players online?
Great sound.
Does anyone know how I can get this game to on Windows 10 from the disc?
Very interesting video
Amazing gunnery,.
I like your name, and yes his gunnery is quite exquisite.
What's the black substance being trailed behind the Komet?
NeedsMoreBoosters smoke?
Id imagine burned lubricant for the fuel turbopump.
Or the pilot's faeces 😨
Whenever it went to land was its weakness that's when most of them are destroyed if not during fueling before takeoff
there has been only one delta wing, rudderless, rocket powered aircraft to fly, the Space Shuttle

you want me to make a campaign?
Glad the gunsight got adjusted, so many don't. I found if you went too fast n a dive you had to invert to climb out, I enjoyed flying this plane with unlimited fuel you get to see some high altitudes views.
The gunsight hasn't moved :D
Im Cockpit läuft hoffentlich "Prodigy - Firestarter"? :-)
唉，我们有这么好的1946不玩，非要玩那垃圾的Bos
I think they would wait until they were out of fuel before making a pass or else one round hitting the fuselage would cause an instant explosion.
One round hitting the fuselage would wreck the thing anyways, and it was their speed that protected them.
Wasn't the Komet a rocket powered "glider" airdropped from a mothership?
Wasnt that mxy-7 ohka
See Fishyyy, THIS was the very attack pattern I was trying to describe before... Not a frontal nor rear attack. But across the wings of the bombers, swooshing back and forth!
The 163 is fast, but this same attack worked for me in a Mustang.
Dive in and ain=m for a wing or engine and fire!
Then swoosh back up, flying away from the bombers, climbing and heading ahead of them!
I was glad to see you doing this, I feel vindicated!
This attack pattern against our new tight B-17 boxes - with reworked damage model, in an A-6 - is suicide. Simple as that. Would you be so kind to, from now on, just assume that I know what I am doing? Thank you.
@@Fishyyy I'll take it up another notch for ya!
These things were credited with just nine kills during the war. Even though they're cool af, they must be considered a military failure
This was more a prototype series of planes than a real fighter. I would not consider it a failure. It is the early predecessor of interceptor planes like the mig 31k.
It is a very good concept but the propulsion technology at the time was way too low to achieve higher frag counts. It was a David vs Goliath fight anyways considering there were like up to 16 enemy fighters per Comet.
As Max Mustermann said, it was a small production line in limited use, considering that, that isn't such a bad result, especially considering that it was a totally new technology that was just being tested and explored for the first time. How many early prototypes of any weapon system claim 9 real combat kills basically during the testing phase?
What I find more interesting about the whole thing is that this is a testament for how honest and accurate the Germans were in their kill claims.
If this thing would have been Soviet, they would have claimed it shot down hundreds of enemy planes and would be teaching that "fact" in schools till today.
I'm no scholar on the matter, but I read that apparently German kill claims line up pretty well with their enemy's loss records overall, which can't be said about most other combatant sides in the war.
Especially Russian records are notoriously, often hilariously exaggerated.
There are funny examples where the Russians claimed to have destroyed over 200 Panther tanks in one battle and the German records of the same battle show that they only had 15 Panther tanks at that part of the front and half of them got stuck at some destroyed bridge and never entered the battle.
That makes the following so funny: Just today I read news about Vladimir Putin giving a angry speech about foreigners not honoring Russian heroics in WW2 enough and that he "threatened" to shut their lying mouths by opening the Red Army archives and releasing documents that will show how things really were and how much ass the Red Army really kicked.
lol

hallo wie installiere ich die Nordsee map ?
Please Fishyyy, can you help me out?
I am an IL-2 addict for years now and what amazes me is that you manage to create a mission with a lot of planes (96 B-24’s! Yes, I downloaded your mission to figure it out how you did it - marvelous!) and don’t seem to have any stutter problems at all.
Your pc manages to cope with it easily.
My machine has a i7 3820 CPU @ 3.60GHz, 32 GB Ram memory, an SSD hard drive and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.
I simply cannot run your mission. I have to reduce the planes by half and even then it doesn’t go smoothly. I tried several settings for my conf.ini in the game - you sure know what I am talking about - but no… it doesn’t work for me.
Can you give me any tips about your conf.ini settings (or may be other settings) that will make it possible for me to run IL- 2 1946 as smoothly as yours?
Best regards,
Jenato
BAT?
Indeed. BAT since the beginning. But even before BAT I suffered with the same problem.
Try with a different version. Generally speaking, the less mods the game uses, the better the performance is. BAT is not a good version for big bomber formations. I think a problem might be that BAT has the big contrails mod that makes high altitude bomber formations unplayable fps wise.
Thanks for the advice. I will try out a vanilla install with the 4.12.2 version on top. It has came up into my mind many times BAT is a memory-eater. I will try to install the minimum of MODS (VP Mod Pack for isntance...) and see what it will give. Space and memory enough to try out both versions and compare them.
A friend of mine, who installed the basic disk version only recently to measure out framerate differences compared with the BAT install came to the same conclusion you just made. The more Mods, the lower the performance. So, we will try out and see...
Anyhow, thanks a lot for your supportive advice.
Beautifully well done
Sorry, you ran out of fuel halfway through.
No, he managed his fuel perfectly, only running out of it shortly before landing - as he should.
9:20 The nose art on the B24 here is derived from the nose art of 242 Hurricane Squadron, commanded during the Battle Of Britain by Douglas Bader. It represented a boot, with "242" on it, kicking Hitler in the bum.
i.pinimg.com/originals/44/77/18/4477186516798486a0b980ddf4d7b85a.jpg
Very interesting. The nosearts were in a pack i downloaded somewhere at some point. I renamed the files into "1" to "148" to make them easy to apply to the planes without repeating some. That's why you can often see that noseart on the lead plane of a raid.
In my teenage years I first read about 242 Squadron in the Douglas Bader biography, "Reach For The Sky". It was called a Canadian squadron, because of the large number of Canadian pilots. It served in France before Dunkirk and suffered high casualties. The squadron returned to Britain in June 1940 with only its surviving aircraft and a few tools for the ground crews. Bader was posted to command of the squadron and found a bunch of surly, demoralised pilots with a very bad attitude to authority. By sheer personality, and by showing them that a pilot with no legs was as good as, if not better than, any of them, he won them over.
Bader cut through all kinds of red tape getting the squadron supplied with new aircraft and all the spare parts that they needed and by the time the Battle of Britain began the squadron was fully operational.
The three pilots in the photo I linked to are Eric Ball, Douglas Bader and Willie McKnight. Ball was killed in a flying accident in 1946 and McKnight KIA in January 1941. Bader baled out over France in August 1941 after colliding with a ME 109 and taken prisoner. Because he became such a pain in the neck to the Germans with his repeated escape attempts, he wound up in Colditz Castle.
Didn't Galland invite him over after he was shot down?
He did, indeed. In "Reach For The Sky", there is a photo of Bader, while a guest of Galland, sitting in a Me109, with a group of German officers standing around. The photo's caption falsely states that one of the German officers is seen with a pistol in his hand, in case Bader tries something. In fact, the German officer was holding a pipe.
Comet sighted!
Can the Komet fly into space?
Bet it could if it had enough fuel.
Nah, had a service ceiling of something like 90,000ft.
@@dzdemonicp4552 as said if IT had enough fuel........It is a rocket
